A rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that occurs when sunlight is refracted, or bent, through raindrops in the Earth's atmosphere. This refraction causes the sunlight to separate into its component colors, creating a beautiful arc of colors in the sky.Rainbows are typically seen when the sun is shining and rain is falling at the same time. They often appear as a semi-circle of colors ranging from red on the outer edge to violet on the inner edge, with orange, yellow, green, and blue in between.Rainbows have long been seen as symbols of hope, beauty, and good luck in many cultures around the world. They are often associated with positivity and happiness, and many people find them to be a source of joy and wonder.While rainbows are most commonly seen in the sky after a rainstorm, they can also be seen in other situations where light is refracted, such as in mist, fog, or even in the spray of a waterfall. Regardless of when or where they appear, rainbows continue to captivate and inspire people of all ages.
